the Onlou Veteran Legion, Of rittsburg,
came up with the hig Cathedral Band at its
head. 1t va universally expected that

band swung his long stail to the right and

right undcr the banner, aud cutting OFF the
MtoHigar,r crowd aud the Pittshurg poll
uciaus behind them from the main part of
the spectators, and the Legion, with cOlOrs
upright and compact ranks, MAJ Ched right
under the portrait OF the President. For
a moment the great crowd was silent, and
then = wild cheer burst from hundreds Of
citizens aud G.. \. K. men who, ashamed
OF their comrades, had dropped out OF the
line in disgust. The Republicans respond
ed with misses, aud Tor few moments
trouble seemed near But on marched the
Legion, with COm;uandeT-in Chief Geo. B.
Chalmers AT their head, over 3OD strong.
This manly action coming in such marked
contrast 10 the G.. \. r., met with the
widest enthusiasm, and the Legion was
everywhere commended in the mOst hearty
manner.
News Of the action OF the G.. 4 H. had hy
this time spread uvera goodly portion OF the
town, and prominent citizens OF both par
ties soon hurried to the vicinity Of the
REUSTEE ui'irc full Of Indignation 1T the
indiguity 80 gratuitOusly offered. The
excitement was intense, and expressions
OF resentment were bitter and mnumera-
hle. Men ordinarily among the most
quiet in the city, were white with anger,
and expressed themselves In words which
showed the outrage had struck home.
Others, no less iayenSrd, were almost in
tears ~ they thought OF how utterly an
event, III which ALL up to noon, had had II
part, had been dragged from its seemingly
secure foundation, and made to serve the
ends Of bitter partisauism. Democrats
who had hccu most active in making
the Reunion success threw away their
badges and went home in disgust, and
where an hour before all had been Of one
mind and OF one purpose, thrr" vas a
community divided, = great event marrcd

maiguity and bitterness Ofheart which may
well bring a blush OF shame 20 the cheek OF
every patriotic man, and cause mingled
feelings Of indignation and sorrow to I'LL
the breast of every citizen Of this commu-
nity. The scenes enacted in front of the
/ REGSrER office, beneath the portrait Of
the Chief Of the army and
navy of the United States, were 50 dis
graceful in their nature, and 50 totally un-
expected by the general public, that even
/ those who " witnessed them were lOI time
surprised into silence aud Inundated he
yond expression by what took place, but
when there could be no longer any doubt
OF the studied purpose Of the men
passing before them when it became
evident that the whole proceeding had
been premeditated and carried into eXecu-
ton with deliberate purpose OF not only
marring the spIcndor Of the Reunion, hut
OF insuItiEgt to their teeth a majority OF
the people Of Wheeling the Indignation
knew TO bounds, and for time it seemed
that week OF cordial and iratcrnal greet
ing and an era Of unbounded hospitality,
without a parallel in the history Of the
State, was to he ended in u conflict he
tween the agressors anu those upon whom
the iudguaty had been put-bctween
guest and host--betweru the soldiers OF
PENNSYLVANIA and Ohio aud West Nir-
gina aud the citlgens Of Il town who at
20 much cost 10 themselves had extended
their hands in greeting and had enter
tanned with hospitality only limited by
their ability and opportunity. SO coward
/ ly, so shameful, 80 atrocious was
this onslaught upon good taste
this outrage upon common de
cency-that language fails to furnish
| fitting terms wherewlth to deuounce its
/ iustigators, or in which to characterize
those who carried it out For it there
can be no excuse, no palliation, no con
donement. for the testimony of thousand
witnesses shows that the officers OF the VA
/ rious Posts OF this "non-partisan order
urged their men from the straight path
which lay unobStructed before them into
/ the crowded cutters, that they might make
their insult the more prominent, and in
uauy instances Post commanders and
their aides grasprd the statis of lNgs which
had been Carried through the smoke OF
honorable war aud dragged them down to
y level with their disgrlced selves. Men
who would otherwise have shown their
maulincss and sense Of justuess and brains
were thus led hy their officers into taking
part in a public mark Of disrespect to the
President, and unwittingly, perhaps, be
came covered with the disgrace, and made
their pretensions to patriotism, and love
| OF country seem the sham it IS.
From the hest information which can
be gathered from a careful! study OF the
facts, and manifold inquiries made OF many
persou-, it seems the outrage Of yesterday
had its origin in a sensational, malicious
and untruthtul telegram sent out from this
city Thursday night to the Pittsburg Dts-
/ 18th This telegram was sent By III. Z.
